BLENDS OF POLYETHYLENE AND PEO HAVING INVERSE PHASE MORPHOLOGY AND METHOD OF MAKING THE BLENDS

A composition comprises a polyolefin, such as polyethylene, as a major constituent and poly(ethylene oxide) as a minor constituent. The composition exhibits an inverse phase morphology so that the poly(ethylene oxide) forms a continuous phase and the polyolefin forms a dispersed or discontinuous pha...

Zusammenfassung:A composition comprises a polyolefin, such as polyethylene, as a major constituent and poly(ethylene oxide) as a minor constituent. The composition exhibits an inverse phase morphology so that the poly(ethylene oxide) forms a continuous phase and the polyolefin forms a dispersed or discontinuous phase in the film. Desirably, the polyolefin and the poly(ethylene oxide) are grafted with a polar, vinyl monomer. The composition can be used in disposable personal hygiene articles.
